Apply for a one off proxy vote

It is now possible to apply for a one-off proxy vote (where you appoint someone to vote on your behalf for one election day only) online.

You will need to make sure that your proxy is eligible, and has not already been appointed a proxy for the maximum number of people.

As part of your application you will be required to provide your national insurance number, and have a digital copy of your signature.

Poll cards will be sent to the appointed proxy confirming where they need to go to cast your vote in the weeks before the election.
